Calipers — Standard, Extended and Head/Neck/Mammo Models

Huestis Medical calipers are designed to be the most accurate calipers in radiology. Their detailed construction is precisely controlled so that scales can be calibrated and verified in 1 mm increments to help prevent measurement miscalculations.

Interrelated parts help prevent looseness at the connecting joints to lessen the chance of miscalculation or overradiation. Precision machined and gold anodized, Huestis Medical calipers offer reliable performance and lasting value.

Features

Accurate Design

• Detailed engineering utilizes minimal fastener points to ensure rigidity.
• Scales are accurately calibrated to 1 mm increments.

Easy to Read

• Off-table, point-to-point scales read from the top down.
• Tabletop scales read from the table up, in a different color.
• Recessed indicators protect enumeration from premature wear.

Versatile Measurements

• Central-axis
• Off-axis
• Laterals
• Obliques
• Off-table

Ease Of Use
